Awesome. Did you have an urge to unclip and jump?

That looks awesome. Was your heart in your throat the whole time?

Wow. That's it. Just wow.

Wow.

THAT is WAY COOL!!!

Very cool!

I know the feeling....

When I worked on the Williamsburg Br. a bunch of us used to get up top early to watch the sun come up and and have some coffee..

This is me way back at the beginning of my quasi illustrious career I am on the Manhattan Br, Brooklyn Bridge in the back ground, and something in the background that is not there anymore....

nah, piece of cake...

for someone with a lot of stamina. I'd be too winded to enjoy the climb.

cool pic- TimT....Vash

You have to nucking futs to do that job. Not me, no way, no how, no no no.

I'm fairly courageous (or foolhardy, depending on your perspective), but I DO NOT like heights. Not a bit. The Ferris Wheel scares me. But airplane rides do not. Anyway, I would have been petrified.

A friend of mine operated one of the 500' high tower cranes during the recent Tacoma Narrows Bridge project. Right where Galloping Gertie once stood. In the breeze. No, thanks.

great view
 

Been across that bridge many times but never saw it from that angle. Were you replacing the lights?

So with a hand on each rail in a death grip, how the heck did you take a picture?

Did you take the picture holding the camera with two hands? That is a good day at work?

some work days are way better than others..
 

Two hands on the camera. I'm very tied off, very safe. I took a summer intern up to make his weeks of menial labor worth it. We went up with a team of bridge engineers.

Nooooooo.

Dude...

wow. tim.

i just realized, you are wearing a safety belt! those things are "back in the day". not legal anymore.

i admit, i had bad dreams last night. i had to sleep on the couch, to let my wife sleep..and the couch is lower to the ground. my foot could touch the floor. :)
